vouch  for  the  truth  of  their  statements  on  their  word  of 
honor.  The  Committee  shall  have  power  to  summon  wit- 
nesses, and  if  members  of  the  Association,  a  neglect  or  re- 
fusal to  appear  may  be  reported  to  the  Association,  and

at  the  trial,  except  that  a  less  number  may  adjourn  from 
time  to  time,  shall  hear  and  decide  the  allegations  and 
proofs  thus  submitted  to  them ;  and  if  they  find  the  com- 
plaint, or  any  part  of  it  to  be  true,  they  shall  so  report  to 
the  Association,  with  their  recommendation  as  to  the  action 
to  be  taken  thereon.

and  if  requested  by  either  the  member  or  members  com- 
plaining, or  the  member  complained  of,  shall  annex  thereto 
a  copy  of  the  evidence  taken,  which  said  documents  shall 
be  regarded  as  a  report  of  the  Committee  to  the  Associa- 
tion. 

The  President  shall  thereupon  call  a  Special  Meeting  of 
the  Association,  on  a  notice  of  not  less  than  ten  days,  for 
the  consideration  of  the  report,  specifying  in  the  call  the 
object  thereof;  and  of  which  Special  Meeting  the  member 
complained  of  shall  have  due  notice. 

The  Association  shall  thereupon  proceed  to  take  such 
action  on  said  report  as  they  may  see  fit,  provided  only 
that  no  member  shall  be  expelled  unless  by  the  vote  of  two- 
thirds  of  the  members  present  and  voting. 

Whenever  a  trial  shall  be  determined  on,  the  member 
complained  of  may  object  peremptorily  to  any  one  or  more 
of  the  Committee,  not  exceeding  three ;  and  the  places  of 
those  objected  to  shall  be  supplied  by  the  remaining  mem- 
bers of  the  Committee  for  the  purposes  of  the  trial 

All  the  foregoing  proceedings  shall  be  secret,  except  as 
their  publication  is  hereinbefore  provided  for. 


XL 

These  By-Laws  may  be  amended,  at  any  stated  meeting 
of  the  Association,  by  a  vote  of  two-thirds  of  those  present ; 
provided  that  ten  days'  notice,  in  writing,  of  the  proposed 
amendment  has  been  given  to  the  Executive  Committee,
